Categories Comments Campus Safety
The school has an eletronic gate with a code so that not anyone can get it, either with car or walking.
Clubs and Activities
They have different clubs, clubs that make movies, clubs that do social work, soccer, prayer, etc
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
BUA has different diversities and there is a day where we all meet to make a party and people form different countries share some food from their country and there's music, games, etc.
What to do for fun
We have the riverwalk like 15 min away from the school, so its a fun place to go. We have different restaurants close to the school that you can go walking, like chick-fil-a, Ihop, Mama margies, Oliver garden and others. There is also the mall and HEB and Walmart really close.
Food and Dining
They have a good cook, and they always give you dessert which is a plus. I really like that they always have a salad bar whatever the meal is, because that helps you to eat all the minerals and nutrients we need.
Dorm Life
the dorms are great because they aren't the regular college dorms, they are apartments that have a kitchen and a living room, which gives you a little preview of what its like to live on your own.
Academic Rigor
BUA has good teachers that strech the students mind to think outside the box.
Tips for prospective students
Be open to do any activity, take advantage of the get togethers organized by the university, the student council or even from your own dorm.
In three sentences
It's a really great place. I transferred to another university for one semester and it didn't feel like home, like BUA and that's the reason I'm going back this semester. The students and the stuff make the university a great place to be at. I would recommend this college for people who embrace different diversities and want to feel at home even though their houses are miles or seas apart.

Very safe, feels family oriented
Greek Life

Clubs and Activities
Latina Leadership program, missions society, student council, film, and soccer.
Great for these types of students
BUA is great for students seeking theology, business, leadership, missions, or cross cultural studies.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
Every Tuesday and Thursdays we meet for chapel, its were we worship together and find out current events that are going on campus.
Bang for the buck
Its been hard looking for a job
What to do for fun
We have a student center near our dorm were students get together and sing or play there instruments.
Food and Dining
It could be better. I'm vegetarian
Dorm Life
Dorm life is wonderful, we have a full kitchen will a full bathroom. Our rooms are big, either you can have your own room or share a room. Each room has a walk in closet, desk. Our apartment dorm has free Internet and cable. The dorm complex is a christian closed community. I would rate it 4 stars, only because we had an issue with spiders, however it has been taken care off.
Academic Rigor
The Baptist University of the Americas has a wonderful theology program with small classes that allow you to work and know your professor's better.
Tips for prospective students
1. Set guidlines for your self it is easy to get carried away in other things rather than focusing on your studies. 2. Try not to buy your books at the book store try to get them on amazon or half price book store you will find them a lot cheaper. 3. Time, make sure you manage it right, with your studies, social life, and sleep to much sleep or very little can be bad for you.
In three sentences
Its a great place to be, that offers and education with a christian back ground. The classes are small, so it allows you to have a one on one relationship with the teachers. Over all everyone is friendly and is willing to help someone in need.

Ten Professors Honored With Faculty Awards
Dartmouth Now
July 20, 2012
Ten faculty members have been recognized for exceptional achievement in scholarship, teaching, and mentoring for 2012. Among the honors bestowed was the Jerome Goldstein Award for Distinguished Teaching, decided each year through a vote by members of the graduating senior class.
The awards are announced annually by the Office of the Dean of Faculty of Arts and Sciences.
"The accomplishments of these professors, as teachers and as scholars, are inspiring to students and faculty alike," says Michael Mastanduno, dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences. "I am proud to call them my colleagues."
Vicki May, associate professor of engineering
The Jerome Goldstein Award for Distinguished Teaching, chosen by a vote of the class of 2012
May's research focuses on engineering education, inquiry-based learning, and seismic engineering. She is currently co-leading a program in which Dartmouth graduate students work with middle school teachers and students to develop lessons that cultivate interest in science, math, and engineering. She also works with the $300 House Project, a joint effort across departments—including Tuck School of Business, Studio Art, and the Dartmouth Center for Health Care Delivery Science—to create affordable housing. May came to Dartmouth in 2005 and joined the full-time faculty at Thayer School of Engineering in 2010.
"Teaching has been my passion for many years, and I find teaching at Dartmouth to be very rewarding," she says. "I'm amazed at Dartmouth students' ability to tackle challenging projects and their level of intellectual curiosity and creativity."
May looks to further her teaching by developing new strategies of instruction.
"Teaching, to me, is about the students, connecting with them in ways that encourage them to learn and grow. I enjoy experimenting with different teaching approaches and hope to continue to evolve as a teacher."

BRISTOL, Tenn. – For the second time in as many days, the King University baseball team got a quality start, but the Tornado fell in the late innings to cross-town rival Virginia Intermont College. Mark Hode got the start and tossed six solid innings, allowing two runs on four hits, but the Cobras plated a pair of runs in the top of the ninth inning to top the home-standing Tornado 5-4.
The Tornado (1-9-1) got on the board in the third inning as Alex Azeredo started the frame with a walk before he was sacrificed to second by Cody Rogers. A Tom Hooker groundout moved Azeredo to second before he scored on a wild pitch to give King a 1-0 lead. King added to the lead in the fifth as Hooker and Garrett Cook both were hit by pitches before Stephen Mullins ripped an RBI double down the left field line to stretch the Tornado lead to 2-0.
However, the Cobras (1-4) answered in the top of the sixth inning as Ryan Hankins ripped a double to right center to score one, and Alex Couch followed with a run scoring single to left field to even the score at two. Virginia Intermont grabbed a 3-2 lead with an unearned run in the seventh inning before King responded in the bottom of the frame.
Hooker drew a leadoff walk before Cook sacrificed him to second base. Mullins followed with another double down the left field line to even the score at three. After a pitching change, J.D. Wallace ripped double down the right field line to score Mullins and give the Tornado at 4-3 advantage.
The score remained the same until the Cobras mounted a rally in the ninth inning. Adrian Rivera drew a leadoff walk and stole second before Fabian Placencia drew a walk to put runners on first and second. A sacrifice bunt moved the runners up before Hankins ripped a sacrifice fly to deep center field to even the score at four. The bases were then loaded when Placencia scored a wild pitch to give Virginia Intermont a 5-4 lead. Mitch Stophel got a groundout to end the threat and bring the Tornado to bat.
Cook tried to get the offense going in the bottom of the ninth with a one-out single, but I wasn't meant to be as he took off on a hit and run and Mullins hit a fly ball to center field. The ball was caught and the Cobras made the throw to first to turn the double play and take the 5-4 win.
In his first start of the season Hode lasted six innings and allowed just the two runs on four hits while striking out three. Wallace and Mullins paced the offense with five hits between the two. Wallace went 3-for-4 with one run batted in while Mullins went 2-for-5 and drove in two runs.
King will be in action again on Saturday when the host Notre Dame College (Ohio) in a doubleheader. First pitch is scheduled for 12:00 p.m.

Spring 2009 Issue
SMART Ride
It is more than 165 miles from Miami to Key West - miles that are a long drive in a car, let alone by bicycle.
Yet, several Barry community members came together November 14-15 to bike the distance, raising more than $10,000 for charities that benefit those affected by or are at-risk for contracting HIV/AIDS. All of the proceeds from the Southernmost AIDS/HIV Ride (SMART) go to six direct service organizations in Florida.
For the first time, the university was represented in the event by "Team Barry," made up of alumnus Thomas Doll, Senior Director for Graduate Admissions Dave Fletcher, and friends Gerald Judd and Linda Marino.
In addition to those riding, several other members of the Barry community helped with the ride by working for the crew. Don Slone, clinical instructor for the Master of Science in Anesthesiology program, Barry student Eugene Budzonsky and Carol Clothier, assistant dean for the College of Arts and Sciences, all volunteered to help with the two-day ride.
It is the fifth SMART ride for Fletcher, who has been participating in charity rides for HIV/AIDS since 1999. In the past eight years, he has raised more than $35,000 for the cause.

By RV Iyer
There are various types of meditation that are being marketed
in the western world by various Ashrams and their disciples,
who have branched out on their own. There are genuine
teachers to help the humanity with free discourses and these
need not be doubted.
Meditation is not a simple thing. Every body is exhorted
to sit in a straight pose and close eyes and concentrate on
a particular section or a symbol. It is not as easy to
In meditation the ultimate objective is the state of
Dhyana, which means one-pointed concentration. Can anyone
attain that status immediately? The answer is No.
In the olden days and even these days with great yogis,
there is still a practice to observe the disciple for a year
and only then impart the ways and means to achieve the state
of Dhyana. What are the requisites for that? Before
analyzing Dhyana let us digress from here.
In Dhyana, the first thing that is achieved is complete
relaxation. Then, practice withdrawing the senses from
outside, which is called Pratyahara. Then comes Dharana
which is an effort to concentrate. During Dharana,
concentration goes out and in, just like an electric bulb
switched off and on. When concentration is finally obtained,
it is called Dhyana. Dhyana is real meditation.
Now we go back to the fourth paragraph. Each human being
is quite separate in temperament, sensibility, ego and has
his own Vasanas and Karmas embedded in the mind. The same
type of meditation will not be suitable for all. There are
different categories of mind as follows:

Repressive regimes looking to criticize the U.S. have all recently turned to events in Ferguson, Missouri, where police shot unarmed black teenager Michael Brown earlier this month. Engaging in what's known as "whataboutism" in political circles, these nations are jumping at the chance to promote their views that the U.S. can't meet the standards it preaches to the rest of the world.
Yet while the events in Ferguson reminded many in the U.S. that the country urgently needs to tackle questions of inequality and race relations, these oppressive governments -- perhaps unsurprisingly -- fail to mention their own records on human rights over the years.
North Korea
In a statement published by state media on Tuesday, North Korea says that the shooting of Michael Brown is proof that the United States is a "graveyard of human rights."
American citizens "are subject to discrimination and humiliation due to their races and they are seized with such horror that they do not know when they are shot to death," the statement says.
The regime in Pyongyang, which has been globally condemned for running prison camps, oppressing its population and cracking down against opposition, has often been quick to denounce the United States, and in doing rarely separates fact from fiction.
Konstantin Dolgov, the special representative for human rights for Russia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, argued in an official statement last week that the events in Ferguson reveal "the deep-rooted problems with human rights and democratic standards in the U.S." Dolgov also deplored American authorities' "harsh" reaction against "active opponents of continuing inequality" and the treatment of some members of the press who covered the events in Ferguson.
The representative even had some advice for U.S. authorities: "Address long-simmering domestic problems and give up the outdated policy of interference in other nations' affairs to overturn undesirable regimes under the pretext of protecting democracy and human rights."
Though Dolgov may have a point in his critique of the police's use of "army arsenals against civilians," he fails to mention Russia's brutal crackdown on political opposition as well as its efforts to limit freedom of speech in the country.
The Chinese government's official news agency Xinhua slammed the U.S. for so often lashing out at foreign governments for infringing on people's rights while it violates human rights in its own country.
"The Ferguson incident once again demonstrates that even if in a country that has for years tried to play the role of an international human rights judge and defender, there is still much room for improvement at home," Xinhua wrote.
The U.S. is one of several western countries that have regularly criticized Beijing for its human rights record. In a February report, the U.S. State Department argued that "repression and coercion, particularly against organizations and individuals involved in rights advocacy and public interest issues, were routine."
Syria, a country engaged in a brutal civil war that has claimed the lives of more than 190,000 people, condemned Ferguson authorities' behavior in a recent report published by state media. According to Reuters, news agency SANA described the actions of Missouri police as "racist and oppressive."
Iran has been relishing calling out the U.S. over its actions in Ferguson, with the country's state TV claiming that "Obama has endorsed the use of the National Guard to suppress protests." In addition to the televised jabs, leader Ayatollah Khamenei has made repeated disparaging remarks on Twitter about U.S. hypocrisy and crackdowns on dissent. Unsurprisingly, Khamenei made no mention of Iran's own record on human rights.
On Aug. 19, Egypt's Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement on Ferguson that called on the United States to have "respect for the right of assembly and peaceful expression of opinion." The statement came just a few days after the one-year anniversary of an Egyptian massacre, in which security forces killed more than 800 protesters.

At swimsuitsforall, we challenge the idea that women have "trouble zones." We believe in embracing your every curve and know that for many ladies, it's difficult to do that when it comes time to buy a swimsuit. So many of the plus size swimsuits on the market today just aren't designed to provide a proper fit. They focus on just covering the body without contouring and accentuating, leaving you feeling self-conscious when it comes time to take to the beach.
Our mission is to put an end to settling for one piece or two piece swimwear that doesn't make you feel as amazing as you are, and we've put together the ultimate plus size swimwear collection to help you find a style that will truly fit not only your body but also your taste in fashion. The Core Slimming Swimwear is our curated collection of styles that shape and contour the midsection, so you can focus on enjoying the shore and the pool without worrying about keeping your tummy tucked in.
In the Core Slimming Swimwear, you'll find a wide range of smart solutions for enhancing your silhouette. Many of the figure-flattering swimwear designs in this collection include 4-way stretch control panels that provide firm support along the midsection without squeezing you in uncomfortably. Others include Power Mesh lining that creates a smooth look the minute that you slip the plus size swimwear on.
Want something a little flirty and feminine? Check out the swim dresses in the Core Slimming Swimwear range. With sheath, A-line and empire styles, these figure-flattering swimwear designs give you the fit of your favorite sundress in fabrics that are made for the water.
If you're searching for a suit for swimming laps or water aerobics class, the chlorine-resistant styles in the curated plus size swimwear collection are for you. They outlast conventional swimsuits by withstanding the effects of chlorine, and they'll give you a confidence boost with their slimming effects.
Our Core Slimming Swimwear collection includes silhouettes to suit all figures and designs that appeal to every style preference. We know that purchasing a bathing suit online can be difficult since you can't try before you buy. That's why we have a team of plus size swimwear advisors standing by to make shopping simpler. One of our customer service reps can discuss your needs and tastes with you and then recommend figure-flattering swimwear in the right size to give you the best look and fit.

What is sitting inside your desk drawer as you read this sentence?
Maybe some rubber bands? A pair of scissors that don't quite close all the way? Or some reminder slips regarding phone calls you're two or three years late in returning?
What about coins? It's a timely question, given that Randy Lawrence of La Jolla had a penny in his own desk drawer, inside a plastic sandwich bag, for over three decades, a penny that turned out not to be very penny-like.
Numismatic experts have deemed the coin worth 25,000,000 pennies, give or take, which, if you don't have an abacus nearby, equals $250,000.
Dollars. Yep. In case that dollar sign looked like it might not belong there.
It's a "genuine 1974 Denver Mint Lincoln cent that was struck in aluminum, the only one of its kind known dated 1974 from the Denver Mint," says a representative.
The "experimental penny" will be displayed through Saturday, Feb. 1 at the Long Beach Coin, Currency, Stamp, & Sports Collectible Expo.
As with any interesting coin tale, the 1974 Denver Mint Lincoln aluminum cent enjoyed a few twists and turns along the way.
Mr. Lawrence inherited the penny from his father 33 years ago. And while the penny indeed was drawer-bound for much of that time, it spent last August in the trunk of Mr. Lawrence's car, as he drove from Denver to La Jolla.
Not long after that, the unwitting owner of one very precious penny contacted Michael McConnell, owner of the La Jolla Coin Shop, to sell his coins.
When Mr. McConnell realized what the penny was, he contacted Mr. Lawrence right away. "I wouldn't be able to sleep without notifying him," said the professional numismatist.
Nice. And there the story takes an even nicer turn: The two men will "share in the sale of the cent" this spring, and "will donate 'a significant portion of the proceeds' to a San Diego charity that helps the homeless."
The penny's ultimate price could exceed a quarter of a million dollars. Heritage Auctions, the company responsible for its Long Beach display, will be overseeing the process.
If you'd like to see what can indeed be called a lucky penny, make for the Long Beach Convention Center by Feb. 1. Plenty of coin enthusiasts and experts'll likely be checking out the silver beauty, so come prepared to learn more about the Denver Mint, rare finds, and those headline-making, oh-so-surprising desk drawer discoveries.

Lindsay Lohan spent Christmas in New York with her family. Saturday night she hit up the Rangers game with her sister and brother. Afterwards they were spotted at that piece of sh-t douchebag Sean Avery's Warren 77…with Avery himself and 3 other players. According to the lovely Isabelle, Aaron Voros (who bounces in and out of lineups, not exactly a top forward) had his arm around her most of the night.
Lilo wants her very own hockey player?
Country Bitch and Hil Duff have one each. Only their players at least dress every game. The stature of the star attracts the stature of the player.
Yesterday Lindsay went shopping. The paps said she kept ordering the staff around the shoppe. Then she posted what she was trying on (Stella McCartney) on her Twitter, starved for attention for too many days, and begged for more followers.
Meanwhile back in LA, her on off girlfriend Samantha Ronson was f-cking around with John Mayer on Christmas Eve. They went for karaoke and, in typical Mayer fashion, decided to hold hands for photographers. In their divorce division, it's Samantha who kept the famous friends…
Samantha, by her own account, is closer to her family now that Lilo's no longer around. She also noted cryptically last night, using Jay-Z's wise words:
If you having girl problems i feel bad for you son, i got 99 problems and a b*tch ain't one.

Firstly, yes, Warner Bros. has made a LEGO Movie. A big budget, Hollywood, CGI motion picture starring (the voices of) Chris Pratt, Will Ferrell, Liam Neeson and Morgan Freeman.
The film isn't out until February 2014, and yet Warner Bros. began the marketing push earlier this year with a great looking trailer and various teaser posters.
This shouldn't be a surprise being as LEGO has a great online strategy and has shown previous form in building its own online customer community.
Recently though, the marketing push has begun through closer engagement on social network sites, clearly having learnt lessons from LEGO's own social interaction via its CUUSOO site.
Let's take a look at how Warner Bros. and their digital agency Substance are marketing LEGO's biggest new construction yet using social media…
My attention was first drawn to The LEGO Movie's Twitter campaign yesterday when my film journalist friend tweeted this:
A film is talking to me! RT @TheLEGOMovieUK Age is but a number. Why not build your own mini-figure here? http://t.co/4888Ykn5i4— Ali Gray@The_Shiznit (@The_Shiznit) November 5, 2013
This followed his comment:
Is there anyone out there who is super excited about The LEGO Movie and is older than 32 so I can feel slightly better about myself?— Ali Gray@The_Shiznit (@The_Shiznit) November 5, 2013
The LEGO Movie has its ears to the ground, and is quick to engage. The tweet comes from The Lego Movie UK account, which surprisingly only has 76 followers, but as it's only a very nascent account this shows a soft, subtle approach to marketing, ready for the big Christmas push.
The USA based LEGO Movie Twitter account has 11,025 followers, which is still relatively few, considering the comparable Thor: The Dark World account has 96,025 followers. That film has been released for a week now and has therefore reached the peak of its marketing push. The LEGO Movie still has a long way to go.
So what is LEGO offering in its tweets?
The chance to build your own LEGO minifigure. Here you can make your wildest dreams come true and become a true life LEGO person.
Not like this though. This is the most terrifying thing I saw all Halloween…
Like this…
Here's me halfway through the build. I don't have any trousers on.
And here's the finished product…
I now have trousers. Although I have turned up to work still wearing my LARPING helmet.
You can download this as a custom film poster, desktop background or social avatar, but best of all, you can unlock your specially designed character as a playable minifigure in the forthcoming LEGO Movie computer game.
The LEGO Movie also shares its follower's photographs in a 'fan of the week' showcase.
Congrats to Kristine, the creator of these awesome lemon-flavored LEGO cake pops, and our new #LEGOFanoftheWeek! pic.twitter.com/50szSf58zu— The LEGO Movie (@TheLEGOMovie) September 6, 2013
New #LEGOFanoftheWeek Adam got his whole family to dress up as LEGO bricks for Halloween! http://t.co/DRUg6m6XNt pic.twitter.com/uM7ljGOLfJ— The LEGO Movie (@TheLEGOMovie) August 26, 2013
There's also a palpable sense of joy coming from the stars of the film, who often tweet links and join in conversations with the LEGO Movie account.
@TheLEGOMovie @prattprattpratt Oh, also I play a pirate named METAL BEARD. He has a shark for an arm, no big deal. http://t.co/315K8vhlAT— Nick Offerman (@Nick_Offerman) October 30, 2013
They don't have to do this, they're just clearly excited to be in a LEGO Movie.
As a lifelong LEGO fan, the Twitter feed is a pleasure to follow and uses the relationship built up with its fans over the decades in a responsible, entertaining and relevant way.
On the LEGO Movie Facebook page, LEGO is sharing the photographs its followers have taken of themselves with the LEGO Movie stands found in cinemas around the country.
The LEGO Movie Facebook also runs a 'fan of the week' competition.
This is a specifically built interface where the user can load photos directly on to the Facebook page through an app. Followers can then vote with 'likes' to pick the winner. You can also upload photos on to Instagram using the #LEGOfanoftheweek hashtag.
For further information on social media strategy download our Social Media and Online PR Strategy Guidelines and read our post on how social media engagement is a tactic, not a strategy.
LEGO's Global Head of Social Media Lars Silberbauer-Andersonwill be speaking at our Festival of Marketing event in November, a two day celebration of the modern marketing industry, featuring speakers from brands including Tesco, Barclays, FT.com and more.
Comments (3)
As one of the contributors to the previous Lego piece you link to, I'm really pleased that Lego have taken to social media so enthusiastically for the movie. As I have said many time, Lego are easily my favourite brand in the history of brands, and I love it when they do things well.
Here here! Lego's made huge improvements in a short amount of time, and I genuinely can't wait for that film.
great post.. really liked it

Reap the rewards of garlic...
And keep your fresh breath, too! Why non-aged garlic is best…
In fact, Aged Garlic:
Take 1 tablet daily with food. DO NOT CHEW OR CRUSH.
Do not use this product if you have a bleeding disorder, are taking blood-thinning medication, or are within a week of any surgical procedure. If pregnant, nursing, or taking any medications, consult a healthcare professional before use.
Keep out of reach of children.

Aged and fresh garlic extracts are processed very differently and contain different components. To make aged garlic, garlic is placed in an ethanol solution and stored for 20 months. Aged garlic extract contains S-allyl mercaptocysteine (SAMC), a compound that AGE makers claim is the reason garlic is so good for us. Interestingly, fresh garlic does not contain any SAMC. It only appears after the aging process. Although a body of research has been developed for aged garlic, there have been no successful independent replications of aged garlic studies.Allicin is the key proven compound found in fresh, not aged, garlic. Allicin is a complex compound that is only released when a garlic clove is crushed. Allicin helps support cardiovascular health and supports the immune system.* Aged garlic yields no beneficial allicin.
Is Garlinase® 5000 enteric coated?
Yes, Garlinase® 5000 is enteric coated. An enteric-coated product utilizes a protective outer layer to keep the beneficial garlic extract contained until it reaches the alkaline environment of the small intestine. There, the tablet dissolves, slowly releasing alliin and allinase to form allicin, which is absorbed into the bloodstream as it travels slowly through the small intestine. This ensures optimal absorption and reduces the odor often associated with garlic.
Why do I only have to take one tablet of Garlinase® 5000 per day?
There's a lot of goodness in one small tablet. Garlinase® 5000 contains the equivalent of 45,000 mg of fresh garlic. One tablet of Garlinase® 5000 provides the allicin potential of four cloves of fresh garlic.

The Palestinians say the U.N. General Assembly will vote Thursday afternoon on a resolution raising their status at the United Nations from an observer to a nonmember observer state.
The spokesman for the Permanent Observer Mission of Palestine to the United Nations said Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas will address the 193-member world body before the resolution is put to a vote.
Approval would give the Palestinians the same status at the U.N. as the Holy See.
There are no vetoes in the General Assembly and the resolution, which needs a majority vote for approval, is virtually certain to be adopted.
The mission's spokesman, speaking on condition he was not named, said Monday the Palestinians are urging all countries to support the resolution and "be on the right side of history."

Portland's First Friday ArtWalk may have become a victim of its own success.
Now in its 12th year, the art walk brings several thousand people to the streets of Portland on the first Friday of every month and generates as much as $1 million a year in economic activity.
It attracts not only art lovers, but street performers, diners, tourists and families looking for a fun and cheap night of entertainment.
It has become so popular, in fact, that some arts supporters fear it has veered from its original purpose of providing a low-key opportunity for people to visit galleries, socialize with friends and look at art.
People are looking at the art — now more than ever. But they're not buying. And it's not a low-key experience.
Congress Street, from Monument Square to the Portland Museum of Art, is so crowded with performance artists, vendors and people-watchers that the galleries risk getting lost in the festival atmosphere.
Art walks have become flowing street fairs with dancers gyrating in storefront windows, out-of-pitch buskers hammering out songs on street corners, fire-eaters, break dancers, and sidewalk vendors hawking everything from wool hats to hot dogs.
"As it has become more festival-like, it feels that it's changed the tone of the event," said Jessica Tomlinson, director of the Artists at Work program at Maine College of Art, on Congress Street. "Early on, it was a gallery event. Now, it's a city arts event. It has spilled out of the galleries and has become much more of a pedestrian activity.
"You can participate in First Friday without going into a gallery," she said. "That's totally different from how it was even just a few years ago."
Gallery owners began the art walk as a way to put eyeballs in front of art. If they sold art, all the better.
Because the art walk has mushroomed into something of a social scene, many of the people who might be inclined to buy art are now staying away. The galleries are so crowded that it's getting harder to look seriously at work.
That raises the question of how the art walk should evolve.
Nat May, executive director of the nonprofit Space Gallery on Congress Street, suggests starting an additional art walk, to give people who really want to look at art a chance to reclaim the original purpose.
Space Gallery is so busy on First Fridays that May barely experiences the scope of the spectacle himself.
"I guess one of the questions I have is, at what point do we add a second event?" May said. "Are we ready for a Third Friday event? Do we need to get back to the idea of giving people a chance to go back and look at the galleries?
"I'm not saying it needs to be repaired," he said. "But why not encourage a second day of the month?"
The First Friday ArtWalk began in the fall of 2000 as a low-barrier, no-pressure way to encourage people to soak in Portland's gallery scene without feeling pressure or intimidation.
The idea was simple, and not unique: encourage art galleries to stay open late on the first Friday of every month and create a self-guided walking tour from one end of Portland's peninsula to the other to let people drop in, socialize and look at art, and visit artists in their studios.
It was seen as a way to remove barriers, real or perceived, that discourage some folks from walking into a gallery if they have no intention of buying.
"If people become comfortable with the gallery experience on First Friday, perhaps they will return later to buy something," said Andres Verzosa, a gallery owner.
The Portland Arts and Cultural Alliance, part of the larger Creative Portland Corp., administers the art walk today. It has received grants and attracted paid sponsors to support the art walk, which now involves several dozen venues — and sometimes hundreds during the busiest months.
Verzosa, who owns Aucocisco Galleries on Exchange Street, helped originate the art walk when he ran his gallery on upper Congress Street. He and other business owners on the street hatched the idea as a way to generate foot traffic on their block.
"It has grown into a people-watching event," Verzosa said. "I still do it and I enjoy it. It's good for me and good for my gallery. It gets people in front of artists' work. Sometimes it results in sales, but not often."
During December's First Friday ArtWalk, last week, Verzosa did make a sale.
Lillian Nayder and Matt Johnson, a married couple from New Gloucester, bought a painting by John Blatchford, who also lives in New Gloucester.
Nayder and her husband made their purchase spontaneously. They didn't come to Aucocisco with the idea of buying art, she said.
"This is our Christmas gift to each other," said Nayder. "I'd rather have that than an espresso machine."
Kristen Honey ducked into Aucocisco that night, shook off the rain and proceeded to greet one friend after another. Her evening plans involved seeing art, meeting friends, grabbing dinner and then maybe a drink.
The art walk provides the perfect opportunity to take advantage of everything great about Portland, said Honey, 38.
"I think the art walk exhibits some of the very best parts of Portland. It's a snapshot of what Portland is really all about: art, food, culture and beer," she said.
Over the course of the year, tens of thousands of people participate in the art walk. Because the event is free, there is no way to accurately count the people. Daniel Fuller, director of the Institute of Contemporary Art at Maine College of Art, has counted as many as 7,000 on a Friday.
The Portland Museum of Art, which has offered free admission on Friday nights since before the art walk began, drew a total of 40,000 people on Fridays in 2011, including the art-walk Fridays. The highest number on a Friday night was 3,500, said museum director Mark Bessire.
Last week, 2,539 people entered the museum between 5 and 9 p.m.
There is talk of making the art walk even bigger by adding events at Congress Square and Monument Square — ice sculptures in the winter or circus-like performers in the summer, for example.
Talk of such events makes some gallery owners cringe. They fear it would detract even further from the original intent.
The growing pains associated with the art walk are a natural part of its evolution, said Jennifer Hutchins, executive director of Creative Portland.
Even among those who worry that it's become too big or too diverse, it's hard to find many people who find it objectionable.
"It is spot-on with regard to Portland's image and identity as an arts-friendly city that is open and accessible, down-home and edgy," Hutchins said. "And perhaps most remarkable, everybody likes it. No one at City Hall or the Chamber of Commerce will tell you that the First Friday ArtWalk is a bad thing. Everybody agrees that it's good for Portland."

Rated 4 out of 5 by Kay517 from Hot!!! The only problem I have with this jacket is the internal material. It rubs off on your shirt. It's not that bad, but it can be annoying. Other than that this is a great jacket. I still have no regrets for purchasing it. The braiding on the jacket is what makes it unique!
Date published: 2013-04-13
Rated 5 out of 5 by EJ2013 from THIS JACKET IS A REMIX OF A 2006 JACKET I bought this jacket in 2006, a beige one with more braiding in the front and back and without the pointelle sleeve detail! It is one of my favorite jackets. I am so glad it has been remixed with the pointelle sleeve detail. I wish it had more braiding like its predecessor but it is still a wonderful, super luxe, kid leather, soft jacket. It is very lightweight which I love. I adore this jacket. My only pet peeve is that all of the BEBE leather jackets now have a new vendor for their zipper. The metal pull on every jacket I have purchased since last year has been horrible. The metal pull is bent to the side and hard to straighten out. Other than that this jacket is a must have. It is timeless, tough and sexy! Can be worn with jeans or a skirt! My jacket from 2006 has held up perfectly and is still worn in 2013, no one the wiser except me..... GET THIS JACKET EVEN IF IT IS NOT ON SALE! IF YOU DON'T YOU'LL REGRET IT!

text: Through night visions and symbols I go from very personal feelings to a complete piece of work, the reception of which is frequently different for various people. I do not want to obtrude one meaning, or any meaning of my paintings, I make them for others to think, be part of my dream, to pursue a symbol. I want my art to be spiritual, calm and personal rather than political or public. By its means I wish to study the subconscious and the very meaning of symbols.

Growers are still learning to use fungicides on cotton, and the system will require some tweaking, says Jack Royal, a southwest Georgia cotton consultant.
"We're continuing to look at fungicides to see if they work," said Royal at the recent Beltwide Cotton Conferences held in San Antonio.
"If we can make our growers $1 per acre more after all of his expenses, then it would be worth the trip. We're all in the same boat — if the growers can't stay in business, we can't stay in business."
Royal, who has been in the crop consulting business for 31 years, says he has seen cotton make a comeback in his area. "Luckily, we can grow a variety of crops. We're about 70-percent irrigated. We still plant corn and we have a good many peanuts in our area. We don't plant a lot of back-to-back cotton — we might plant two years of cotton, then a year of peanuts, or we put a year of corn in there with the peanuts. That's basically our rotation," he says.
Royal says there weren't many cotton disease problems in his area of Georgia last year, but that wasn't the case throughout the state.
"In the southeast region of the state, there were problems, and there's no doubt foliar diseases can be a problem. At times, they can be isolated. And like in southeast Georgia in 2008, some years are worse than others and some fields seem more susceptible than others," he says.
It's most likely, he adds, that weather patterns drive disease development. "On the east side of the state, conditions were extremely dry, and growers were irrigating a lot. They also got a hurricane earlier in the season. Overall, diseases seemed much worse in that part of the state," he says.
The major foliar diseases of cotton are cercospora leaf spot, alternaria, stemphylium and aerolate mildew, he says.
The severity of the problems with these diseases varies, says Royal. "In my area, 95 percent of the cotton is planted in DP 555. A few spots can develop into a real problem," he says.
The big question, he says, is do fungicides work on these diseases? "I don't think there's any doubt about that. When we compare untreated fields with fields treated with Headline at 6 ounces — where diseases are a problem — it's obvious fungicides do work. We see a yield difference in the treated fields of about 370 pounds per acre," he says.
It's pretty well documented, says Royal, that a potassium deficiency can drive disease development. Potassium deficiencies cause weak cells in the plant that encourage the spread of disease.
In soil and petiole samples taken after severe disease development had occurred, there was significant difference between potassium levels in the soil between the treated and untreated fields, says Royal. However, there was a significant difference in the potassium levels in the petiole samples.
"This raises a lot of questions," says Royal. "Did the treatment of Headline help with the uptake of potash from the soil? Did diseased foliage affect potash uptake? Why was the potassium level higher in the treated side than in the untreated? You have to start off with enough fertilizer potash in cotton, and if you cut fertilizer, you'll cut yields. In my area, we run from a Greenville soil all the way down to an Americus soil. Since we soil test each year, and we put out our soil amounts, we always trim about 20 to 30 pounds off.
"If it calls for 100 pounds of potassium, we'll put out about 70 to 80, and when we come back with our nitrogen at first bloom, it's become a habit with our growers — and it seems to help especially on our deep sandy soils — to side-dress all of our cotton with 20 to 30 pounds of potassium in with our nitrogen before first bloom, and that usually carries us."
Royal says he used to pull petiole samples on every field, using 200 or 300 petiole kits each year. "Over the years, we probably had less than five that came back with low potassium, and usually it was with heavy rain events and in very sandy soils. Some growers might be trying to cut back, and that's the reason for the difference in the petiole uptake."
In trials conducted in east Alabama last year, there was a slight increase in yield in fields treated with Headline, but it wasn't enough to pay for the application, says Royal.
Farmers need to ask themselves if there is a value in using fungicides on cotton, he says. "There definitely is if you need it — if you know you're going to have a problem. I don't know which conditions need to occur to make the application cost effective. We do know that fungicides must be used preventatively. It's like buying car insurance — you've got to have it because you don't know whether or not you'll need it. The trick is knowing when."
Growers are still learning to use fungicides on cotton, says Royal.
"We've learned to use fungicides on grain and on corn. Eight years ago, I sprayed corn for the first time, and no one else was spraying corn. But we knew rust was coming in from the South. It made us look like a hero with our growers, and for several years after that, we didn't need to spray corn."
As far as the growers in his area, Royal says they'll be planting DP 555 for two more years.
"We know we can get the seed this year, and if we can get it in 2010, we'll plant it. We don't know if the new varieties will be different — there are a lot of unanswered questions. Right now, I can't go to my growers and suggest they spray every acre with a fungicide, based on the data I've seen. We'll continue to look at it, and see if we can find a niche."

Student wins national FFA award
A local high school student has gained national recognition through a small business she runs.
Wapakoneta High School senior Mallory McDevitt received top honors as she earned national recognition during the National FFA Convention, which was held in Indianapolis in October.
The 18-year-old, who owns and operates her own organic produce business, farms a one-acre plot of land at her parent's residence and has a clientele of approximately 30 people when she sells her fresh produce to each week.
The FFA vice president earned first place in at the Ohio State Convention in the vegetable production category of the proficiency award competitions — this qualified her for the national competition.
Then she became one of the top four national finalists in vegetable production and then named the National FFA Proficiency Award winner in vegetable production, during the 84th National FFA Convention in October. This all came after additional interviews and judging after the state level.
"It feels pretty good," McDevitt said, of the achievement, "I won state, and became one of the top four finalists at nationals and won."
Proficiency awards recognize FFA members who excelled as agricultural entrepreneurs, employees or volunteers while they gained hands-on career experience.
Prior to receiving this award, McDevitt has been an Earth Team Volunteer since the age of 14.
This summer, McDevitt collected canned food and also donated produce from her farm, through the Feds Feed Families Food Drive.
McDevitt not only participated in this food drive, but also spearheaded this program for the Wapakoneta field office.
The goal of the drive was to raise 1,000 pounds of food, which was then donated to Mercy Unlimited.
During this food drive, McDevitt made a challenge to herself to make a pound-for-pound produce donation equal to the total of canned foods and non-perishable items that were donated to the field office.
"It became a personal challenge, not only does the office have a 1,000-pound goal, but I have a personal goal to provide more pounds of fresh produce than the office total."
McDevitt met her goal, and was able to donate almost 1,000 pounds of her produce from her garden to the local food pantry, Mercy Unlimited, this summer.
The food pantry manager at Mercy Unlimited is appreciative of McDevitt's efforts.
"It's a really good thing that she has done," Mercy Unlimited Food Pantry Manager Glenna Bair said. "It gave us a lot more produce to give out. It has had a positive effect on everyone."
"She's a great kid for doing this," Bair said. "All of her hard work and effort brought forth a lot of good produce for us."
For McDevitt helping meant more than growing crops.
"Everyone talks about getting involved, and this is one way I could get involved," McDevitt said, "because I had all the resources to do it.
"Mercy Unlimited gets excited when I pull in and unload," McDevitt said. "They appreciate what I'm doing, especially the fresh produce, and I get a good feeling about what I'm doing."

Affecting certain 2011 models, the problem occurs during downshifting, and is caused by a defective reverse actuator cable. The defect could lock and stall the motor while under power, or if stationary could put the trike into reverse without the rider knowing it, thus leading to an accident.

By Jeff Franks and Nelson Acosta
HAVANA (Reuters) - Talks between the Colombian government and Marxist-led FARC rebels to end their bloody, half-century-long conflict have made progress, but broad areas of disagreement lie ahead, the two sides said on Friday as they headed into a holiday break.
Lead government negotiator Humberto de la Calle, speaking at the conclusion of the second round of meetings, said the two sides had agreed on some "unprecedented mechanisms" for civic input into the peace process.
"Since November 19 when we formally began, we've had 21 sessions and more than 100 hours of intense work, and concrete advances, all as expected," said de la Calle, who read a statement but did not take questions.
The two sides are trying to end a war that dates to 1964 when the FARC, or Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, was formed as a communist agrarian movement to end the country's long history of social inequality.
Tens of thousands of people have died and millions have been displaced in South America's last Marxist-led armed rebellion, a vestige of the Cold War.
They said in a joint communiqué on Friday the talks, which will resume in Havana on January 14, were being held "in an atmosphere of respect and constructive spirit."
But the comments of de la Calle and, in a separate press conference, the rebels, signaled the differences to be overcome.
De La Calle said the goal was to convert the illegal guerrilla group into a legitimate political organization, while maintaining the country's economic and social models.
"They don't have to abandon their ideology and the government does not have to change its model of society," said the former vice president.
"We are not negotiating the development model of Colombia nor the democratic system of the government."
But lead FARC negotiator Ivan Marquez, speaking later, said achieving peace "without a doubt requires changes to the model of society and the anti-democratic political system that in the end is responsible for shameful inequality and exclusion that characterize the Colombian regime."
"A badly constructed peace is worse than a war," said the bearded, bespectacled Marquez.
Three previous peace attempts have failed, but Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos hopes a decade-long, U.S.-backed offensive has weakened the rebels enough that they will want to end the fighting on the best possible terms.
If peace is not achieved, the FARC still has 9,000 troops that can keep inflicting damage on the continent's fourth-largest economy.
The negotiations, which are being held in a Havana convention center in the ritziest part of the Cuban capital, have begun with the topic of rural development, the first of six points to be addressed.
Others range from the rebels' involvement in the illicit drug trade to their future political participation.
De la Calle said Colombians, whose opinions are being sought online and in public forums, had provided nearly 3,000 suggestions to aid the peace process, some of which were being closely studied.
He said negotiators were also receiving ideas from development experts and peasants about how to improve life for the rural poor in Colombia.
The FARC's Tanja Nijmeijer, a Dutch national, said the rebels had received more than 250,000 suggestions from Colombians on its websites.
When the talks began in November, the FARC declared a unilateral ceasefire until January 20 and complained this week that the government had not joined it in laying down arms.
Instead, the government has kept up its offensive, killing at least 20 FARC guerrillas in one attack earlier this month.
"The continuation of the fighting severely affects the progress of the Havana process," said rebel negotiator Andres Paris. He said the FARC wanted to give Colombians a peaceful Christmas, but warned that "this unilateral decision ends January 20."
Santos has vowed to maintain military pressure instead of allowing the rebels to regroup as they did during previous failed peace talks a decade ago.
He wants to peace process wrapped up by November 2013, although the rebels said it could take much longer.

Do You See What I See? It's a Designer Pac Man Dress!
I had learned from Fab that fashion designer Giles Deacon had incorporated some intense geeky Pac Man headgear during his London Fashion Week runway show, but I had no idea that such a dress like this existed — stop the presses!
After my run in with the Space Invaders dress at the FCUK store, it became apparent to me that video game graphics on sexy designer dresses wasn't that taboo, and that it was actually kinda sexy.
This sparkly couture Pac Man dress features the key elements from the popular arcade video game, including the ghosts and Pac Man himself. Now get some cherries on there, and this geek would have to add one to her ever-growing wish list!
To see the entire collection, head on over to If It's Hip It's Here.

Kick up your Yoga Class!
Reviewer: Brian Zernich
If ever you want to kick up a Kundalini yoga or Yoga class, this album is right for you! Sat Nam!
Kundalini Beat is a must.
Reviewer: Annika
This is monumental! Dev Suroop is exploring frontiers in chant music that will allow you to access your meditative mind in ways that you would not have previously imagined. If you're ready for the next merger, this album is a must.
Kundalini Beat features music that will keep your foot taping and spirit soaring. Check out the Classical East Indian chanting on Mool Mantra against a hip-hip beat! Great music for yoga exercises, driving or simply to just feel good any time and anywhere.
Creating this album was an adventure from start to finish. In 2004, when Liv Singh and I were in the studio recording the album Radiance, he had the idea to merge chant with rap. We took one of the beats from PBR, a rap artists in Phoenix, and played around with it. Thus was born Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo, the genesis of Kundalini Beat.
This full Double Album release with 8 page booklet including lyrics features both English Hip Hop Yoga and chant only (no English) versions of songs! Over 136 minutes of inspiring music. Get your an out-of-this-world experience of the sacred mantras of Kundalini Yoga, and meditate to the sound of transforming chants, breathe deep & let your soul fly!
Liv Singh Khalsa - Arrangements and Production
Tim Lyddon Keyboards
Mike King Fretless Bass
Peter Torsiello Guitar

Jerry Donato Saxophone and Bass Flute
Dr. Ong Kaar Singh Additional Vocals on One Spirit Beyond Mool Mantra
Liv Singh was born in Osseo, Minnesota. His first music teacher was his grandfather. Liv started playing trumpet when he was 13 years old. When he was 15, he recorded a new age album for friends and family. Liv began practicing meditation in 1972 and at the same year, he started his own record company which became one of the oldest and most successful new age recording companies. Later on, Liv Singh teamed with Livtar Singh and launched an album Liv & Let Liv. After the success of the album, Liv and Livtar Singh Khalsa became a part of a spiritual brotherhood and practiced Kundalini Yoga, chanting and meditation. Liv Singh played guitar and had a huge influences in Sixties rock music.
